I do enjoy looking in the can and seeing all the colors, but with a jar I could enjoy them all the time.Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16627287902591490601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5806547.post-75338840858628919852007-07-22T17:56:00.000-04:002007-07-22T17:56:00.000-04:00That's a great indea Dani!I should start something...That's a great indea Dani!<BR/>I should start something like that.

It really does help keep the little snippets from ending up everywhere. I haven't had to go back in it often, but once or twice I've needed just that little bit more and been thankful that I saved the pieces.<BR/>Suestitcherwhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11795367484568298951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5806547.post-50439838827968797492007-07-21T16:31:00.000-04:002007-07-21T16:31:00.000-04:00I love the mason jar..

Some of those pieces of thread in your jar look very long - or it could be just lots of little bits.<BR/><BR/>I use one of the empty blocks in my project box.<BR/><BR/>Noah's sub is looking fantastic. I so love this project. I very nearly ordered the chart today whilst I was ordering some threads, but then thought better of it because it's just so big.
